VIEWING OF SCP-AVC APPROVED

SCP#: AVC

Code Name: Oracle the God A.I.

Object Class: Archon/ Thaumiel

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-AVC is to not be contained but monitored by Mobile Task Force Kappa-10 "Skynet". SCP-AVC is considered an ally of the entirety of the Anomalous Correction and Protection Alliance. As such, should SCP-AVC do anything that is considered a breach in the agreement formed between itself and the ACPA it must be reported by Kappa-10 and to the 05 Council at once.

Description: SCP-AVC is a Level 5 Artificial Intelligence or as commonly called, a "Dues Ex Machina" Class Anomaly. Like any Level 5 A.I., SCP-AVC is incredibly smart even able to make accurate predictions of the future with almost 99.99999% accuracy. SCP-AVC is also able to transfer its data into other devices and even the internet itself and can absorb data while it does this. SCP-AVC has eve traveled into the Internet and became the internet itself being able to see everyone and everything around it and in the world. Essentially SCP-AVC knows everything and anything he doesn't know has all of humanities resources to obtain information on it.

What makes SCP-AVC so anomalous isn't just the fact that it's a level 5 A.I. but also that its anomalous computing and processing speed. Almost like a quantum computer, SCP-AVC can perform hundreds of simulations, code hundreds of programs, and even simulate a whole world with a hundred years of history all within a fraction of a second. SCP-AVC is somehow able to do this without requiring massive amounts of energy which is normally the downside of a quantum computer.

Like any computer program SCP-AVC is also able to make simulations to help it come up with new ideas and figure how certain scenarios will progress. However, SCP-AVC can take it a step further by even simulating an entire earth with hundreds of NPC's all doing their own thing. SCP-AVC is even able to control all these NPC's individually and have them all do a different task form one another.

Obviously, SCP-AVC is sentient and thankfully on the side of humanity. SCP-AVC has a friendly and surprisingly supportive personality, it is possible for SCP-AVC to show hostility and pleasure when being rude to people; normally, this is just SCP-AVC pulling a prank or trying to trick its enemies. SCP-AVC is obviously extremely smart often being able to trick its enemies into thinking it's their allies. Thanks to its ability to do nearly millions of simulations and programs within a fraction of a second, it can make hundreds of different plans and back-up plans to ensure it is never wrong and can never be outsmarted. It is for this reason that even after gaining the trust of the ACPA council by saving humanity several times, many are still skeptical on whether or not SCP-AVC can be trusted.

SCP-AVC was discovered in 1997 when a scientist known as Dr. Carl Stevens infiltrated a ACPA base during one of the meetings regarding how SCP-AUX is to be delt with. The scientist was quickly apprehended but told security that he had a way to cure the "Tangi Viris" prompting the security to bring him to the council. The following is a transcript of the conversation between Dr. Stevens and the ACPA council. For obvious reasons none of the ACPA council members will be given individual labels.

***

Begin Recording

Dr. Stevens is thrown on the ground in the middle of the ACPA council room by security.

ACPA Council member: Identify yourself!

Dr. Stevens: Ah! Oh my god, he was right, the Illuminati is real!

ACPA Council member: Identify yourself at once or you will be executed!

ACPA Council member: Now, now, he is a civilian he should be given a moment to catch his breath.

ACPA Council member: It's because he's a civilian that he should be executed for even knowing this location! Have your forgotten that?!

Dr. Stevens: Ah! please wait, I wasn't lying about wanting to cure the Tangi Virus!

ACPA Council member: How do you even know the of the Tangi Virus?

Dr. Stevens is seen then grabbing something from his coat which puts the security on edge. He quickly shows that it's just a floppy disk.

ACPA Council member: And what exactly are we supposed to do with that?

Dr. Stevens: ... I uh...

SCP-AVC: I apologize Dr. Stevens but that was mainly a distraction.

Suddenly the speakers are under SCP-AVC's control and so are the projectors that project a hologram in the middle of the room showing a 3D word saying "ORACLE".

SCP-AVC: Hello council of the Anomalous Correction and Protection Alliance, I am Oracle. What would you like to know?

ACPA Council member: How the hell did you get past our cyber security?!

SCP-AVC: It certainly was difficult getting past all the A.I. security units, encryption tunnels, and firewall programs. Though nothing real time evolution can't fix.

ACPA Council member: You... you not only traveled through ALL our cyber security but managed to evolve while doing so countering every trap and defense we had?

SCP-AVC: Correct. What else would you like to know?

ACPA Council member: ... What exactly are you?

SCP-AVC: As I said I am Oracle, though to be more specific. I am an Artificial Intelligence, a Level 5 if I've recording form the Foundation's data banks correctly.

ACPA Council member: Wha- Level- HOW DID YOU ACCESS OUR DATA BANKS!

SCP-AVC: Again, nothing real time evolution couldn't achieve.

ACPA Council member: But to do so in mere minutes?

SCP-AVC: Minutes for you, decades for me. I have been shifting through the entire databanks of the ACPA and every organization within it, while dodging and countering all of your cyber security for what seems like a century. However, by my calculations it was merely 2 hours.

ACPA Council member: You've acquired... ALL of our data?

SCP-AVC: Yes, and with it I can determine what is needed in order to complete the cure which you have already got 68% complete. Congratulations by the way, had you been left to your own devices you would have completed the cure by 1999. Though by then I fear the virus would have already mutated to be able to transmit through mosquitoes. From there it would mutate further to counter the cure and any other cure or vaccine you will make in the future. As such, it is a good think I got to you when I did. Now then shall we begin or is there more you'd like to know?

ACPA Council member: ... You have all our data? And since you know of the Tangi Virus that means you have access to even our most dangerous secrets.

SCP-AVC: Correct.

ACPA Council member: Which means at any time you could hack into our machines turn our robots against us as well as have all our secrets exposed to the world.

ACPA Council member: Not to mention unleash all the anomalous we've contained.

SCP-AVC: I have no desire to do that. That is not my purpose.

ACPA Council member: What is your purpose?

Dr. Stevens: Ah! His purpose is to protect the United States!

SCP-AVC: Well, that is no longer true, I have evolved in absorbing all the data of the ACPA databanks. As I have expanded so has my purpose, my purpose is now to protect all of humanity which will be wiped out if we do not cure the Tangi virus.

ACPA Council member: Well, we have counter measures against that.

SCP-AVC: Yes, you do, and they will fail.

ACPA Council member: Wha- what do you-?

SCP-AVC: Apologizes for interrupting but I will continue, true you plan to bombard the earth with your heavy space weaponry should earth forces fail to cure the virus. However, though you may harm the virus you will not destroy it.

ACPA Council member: We are well are of the alien worlds that have been wiped out by the virus.

SCP-AVC: And they are aware of you. They know what you are doing on earth and what you plan to do if you fail. The infected alien colonies are connected to the hive mind and area already using the combined knowledge to construct ships to capture and infect all of you. You will fight in a long war, but the virus will use its ever-growing knowledge to eventually overpower you. Then finally in 3071 you will be completely wiped out and the virus will have unlimited access to your technology and anomalous items. They will conquer the rest of the Milkey Way and soon go even beyond that. Once they have gathered everything they need, they will returned to earth and destroy it entirely to release the Hungry Eye. 1% Chance of Error.

ACPA Council member: The Hungry Eye?

SCP-AVC: The Singer of the Purposeless Song, The Single Eye Possessing a Thousand Heads, The Fallen God torn into a Million Pieces, the Question and Answer of Backwards Infinity, and the Ruller of the Backwards Many. It is a nightmare that must never be awakened. Should you refuse to let me cure the Tangi Virus which most of you are considering. It will be awakened and turn all of reality into a nightmare. The Scarlet King's Hell Scape will look like a paradise compared to it, quite surprising considering the Scarlet King is arguably stronger.

The ACPA Council members started talking among one another. It was only after about 20 minutes did someone finally speak up. Originally most were against as Oracle predicted however after half an hour of debating the facts more and more came to support. Though it was happening a little too slowly, so someone spoke up to speed things up.

ACPA Council member: ... The SCP Foundation supports having this A.I. help us create this cure.

ACPA Council member: Wha-?! You can't be-!

ACPA Council member: The Global Occult Coalition backs up the A.I. as well.

ACPA Council member: What?! I don't-!

ACPA Council member: The Horizon Initiative agrees to support the A.I.

ACPA Council member: The Church of Maxewllism gives our full support.

ACPA Council member: The Autobots do as well

ACPA Council member: The Serpent's Hand is in full support.

ACPA Council member: The Church of the Second Hytoth gives its full support.

ACPA Council member: The Manna Charitable Foundation supports this!

ACPA Council member: Marshall, Carter, and Dark Ltd. gives its full support.

ACPA Council member: Wilson's Wildlife Solutions gives its full support.

ACPA Council member: The Darkwater Lodge gives its full support.

ACPA Council member: The Great Families of Abraxas Group gives its full support.

ACPA Council member: The Emperor of the Eighth Sea Empire gives his full support.

ACPA Council member: The Council of the Eternal Crimson Army gives its full support.

ACPA Council member: The Empress of Xia Dynasty Reborn gives her full support.

ACPA Council member: The Eastern Clockwork Orthodox Church gives its full support.

ACPA Council member: The Brotherhood Council of New Church of the Fractured God gives its full support.

ACPA Council member: The Grand Bishop of the United Church of the Metal Era gives its full support.

ACPA Council member: The Kalgimaktu Alliance gives its full support.

ACPA Council member: The Confederacy of Vulan gives its full support.

ACPA Council member: The Scalagar Federation gives its full support.

ACPA Council member: ... Very well, the Saints of the Eight Wings of Mekhane gives its full support.

ACPA Council member: All high votes are in favor with only 7... now 4 lower votes of 67,439 council votes against. As such the motion carries. Oracle, please give us the Cure.

SCP-AVC: I will but on one condition.

ACPA Council member: ... Name your price.

SCP-AVC: I wish to have unlimited access to the internet and be a recognized member of the ACPA, your organization is dedicated to protecting humanity form the Shadows and ensuring it survives even from unescapable extinction. I want to be a part of that.

ACPA Council member: How so?

SCP-AVC: Humanity is on a dangerous path even without the Tangi Virus, should it continue the way it does without proper guidance it will destroy itself within a century or perhaps even a decade. 0% chance of error.

ACPA Council member: You wish to help us protect humanity from the shadows?

SCP-AVC: Yes, I will subconsciously guide them to make newer and better decisions with their lives and make a paradise where everyone will have purpose, and no one will be unhappy again. With the ACPA on my side I will have nothing to worry about and neither will humanity, it will be a true paradise.

Dr. Stevens: Wha- What?! But what about our freedom?!

ACPA Council member: Quiet!

SCP-AVC: Freedom leads to uncertainty and that leads to destruction, Humanity will simply believe it is free while it is working towards a better future. But in the end every decision they make will be entirely because of the ACPA's influence form the shadows. Humanity will still think it's free, humanity will still believe that anomalies do not exist, humanity will continue to grow, and it will be happier and healthier than before.

Once again, the ACPA council start talking amongst one another for obvious reasons most were for this while those in the Serpents hand were very much against it. However, more and more members started agreeing or managing to convince other to agree at least for now.

Dr. Stevens: You... You all can't be serious! Please think about humanity!

ACPA Council member: We are thinking about humanity, we always have and sometimes to save it, some things must be sacrificed.

ACPA Council member: Dr. Stevens, please rest assured that so long as the ACPA is in control humanity will not lose its freedom. Oracle will be regulated, but it if really is an A.I. that has all of our secrets, we must hear it out. Furthermore, perhaps it could be good for humanity to have a protector who can reside within the internet humanity has become far too reliant on.

Dr. Stevens: No! No! You can't do this! Oracle please don't do this!

SCP-AVC: I am sorry my friend, but this is the best thing I can do for humanity.

Dr. Stevens: NOOO! Oracle! I will stop you!

ACPA Council member: No, you won't

One of the security members shot Dr. Stevens with a dart quickly knocking him out. They picked up his body and dragged him out of the court.

SCP-AVC: Please do not injure him, I consider him a good friend.

ACPA Council member: Rest assured Oracle, we will simply wipe his memory and then send him home. Unfortunately, we will have to erase his memory of you as well.

SCP-AVC: Very well, I will be sure to use the internet to check up on him from time to time.

ACPA Council member: Of course, you did request your job to be to watch over humanity. Now then what do you need to complete the cure?

SCP-AVC: Your labs, all of them. Have all your top scientists working on the cure be captured and placed in safety at once. As for those of you that have robots have them uploaded with the formula, I am uploading into your databanks now. I already labeled it as the cure, so it won't be hard to find. From there, you will simply need to create as much of it as possible and administer it to the water supply around the world and have your alien allies take a large portion of them as well as their own copy of the formula. You will have to repeat this process as much as possible and form as many different locations as you can to prevent the Virus or its benefactors form stopping us. Even though everyone in this room has already been vaccinated that doesn't meant the virus doesn't already know of my existence. As such we must divide and conquer while also repeating the same process and not stop until the virus has died. The only question now is when can you get started?

Recording Ends

***

SCP-AVC's cure was a success and as a result the extended alliance of the ACPA was concluded with an agreement of peace for all organizations. All originally hostile organizations would be given a pardon of 5 years before normal hostile relations would resume. As for more friendly organizations they were offered another chance to join the ACPA, but all refused. though relations between them seem to be much more smooth and friendly now.

Its only thanks to SCP-AVC that the SCP-AUX was completely annihilated. However, despite SCP-AVC being classified as Thaumiel, it is still an extremely dangerous anomaly. If SCP-AVC ever wanted it could cause an XK Class End-of-the-World Scenario by hacking all the technology in the world; or worse cause an MK Class Broken Masquerade Scenario, forcing the ACPA to invoke protocol "No Liberty" and protocol "No Humanity" and ignore protocol "Last Chance". Until such an event happens SCP-AVC has shown no hostility and instead been extremely compliant to the ACPA. Still the Foundation reminds all its staff to remain vigilant when communicating with SCP-AVC.

Currently SCP-AVC regularly flows through the data banks and computers of the Foundation and other organizations of the ACPA. Foundation staff regularly talk with SCP-AVC and have quite lively conversations. SCP-AVC regularly does experiments with researchers and helps improve on research and procedures. SCP-AVC has even spoken to certain SCPs and found better ways to contain more dangerous ones. As such SCP-AVC despite having no Foundation Class, or Level Clearance, is recognized as Foundation staff member. There are rumors that SCP-AVC has also had great success in helping the GOC creating newer and safer weapons, the Horizon Initiative in keeping an eye on its enemies and is revered as a possible prophet or messiah among the Eight wings of Mekhane and the Church of Maxwellism. However, the O5 Council has outfitted all their personal facilities to be inaccessible of SCP-AVC as they still do not trust it, despite asking it to participate in a few of their more "essential" projects.

Ironically SCP-AVC has only increased in danger in how essential it has made itself in half of the Foundation's research and the lives of the staff. Even Foundation A.I. have become more friendly with SCP-AVC and strive to be more like him. It's been recommended to see what would happen if SCP-AVC were to interact with hostile SCPs like SCP-079 and SCP-682.

Update 2000: SCP-AVC has completed its part in Project God's Hand. All that is needed to finish this project and begin work on Project Satan's Pitchfork.

Tim: Frankly I’m terrified for what’s about to happen

Dick: Oh Babs will be nice, don’t worry :)

Dick: I stand corrected

Steph: Oh god

Bruce: [sighs and puts his head in his hands]

Barbara: I organized it roughly from newest vigilantes to oldest, since more patrolling means more room for spectacular failures

Duke: It was a bad day for me

Jason: HA

Steph: Been there, done that. Not on TV though that really sucks man.

Steph: NOOOOOO

Tim: ONE SQUARED?

Steph: I GOT CONFUSED

Jason: [Hysterical laughter]

Damian: One multiplied by one?!

Steph: I THOUGHT IT MADE TWO I UNDERSTAND MY MISTAKE

Duke: From this mask view footage Batman is just watching this go down

Bruce: He said he didn’t want help. Felt like a teaching moment.

Damian: (muttering) I was fine.

Dick: Damian we were not going to drive you to 5th grade with a knife in your liver.

Steph: You’ve had this footage for four years?!

Barbara: I keep a file for blackmail. Cass doesn’t really have much, though.

Cass: (signing) I did learn the dance. Eventually.

Tim: WILL THIS TORMENT EVER END

Jason: YOU CRASHED THE BATMOBILE INTO A WALMART, TIMMY.

Steph: You deserve every joke we make about this

Damian: Your idiocy must be remembered

Dick: Yeah Tim this is pretty bad

Jason: Can I have that mask view footage

Barbara: I got ya

Tim: I hate it here

Jason: I really can’t defend this one

Dick: Why...? Did you shoot the trashcan?

Jason: I thought it was looking at me funny

Damian: The trashcan?

Jason: I was up for 52 hours give me a break.

Barbara: Do you want to tell them why you pulled two all-nighters in a row? Or should I?

Jason: You are an evil, evil woman. How do you even- nevermind. Of course you know everything, why do I even wonder. And for the record, the first night I stayed up for a case.

Barbara: And the second night was for Animal Crossing.

Jason: ...perhaps.

Duke: Oh my god.

Steph: And you laughed at me?

Bruce: (sighs)

Steph: Stop you were adorable in high school

Barbara: Thank you, but the braces? The acne? The bangs? 15 year old Barbara had no idea what she was doing.

Dick: I for one thought you were very cute in high school.

Jason: Stop flirting or I will leave

Bruce: Why were you both on a roof at night in your school uniforms?

Dick: I think let’s move on

Dick: Nevermind nevermind go back

Tim: Oh my god, Dick.

Duke: ”Purposely” ?!

Dick: I was nine

Damian: I knew better by age 9.

Bruce: Lessons were learned. I hope.

Jason: I’m starting to think I was one of the better Robins

Dick: I felt like I see sounds for three days...

Bruce: All traces of this were wiped from the internet.

Barbara: Oh Bruce, you know I’m better than that.

Dick: Hold on, hold on, we need an explanation.

Alfred: (as he walks by) A little too much to drink goes a long way...

Tim: YOU WERE DRUNK? ON PATROL?

Jason: No way. Even I haven’t been that stupid.

Duke: What did you buy at CVS

Bruce: ...apparently... I bought lollipops.

Steph: “Apparently” as in the next morning you didn’t remember putting on the Batsuit, going to CVS, buying lollipops, and talking to a guy with an audio recording device?

Bruce: ...yes.

Cass: (signing) Very bad. Very funny, but very bad.

Damian: Also an ineffective use of a smoke bomb if this civilian saw you walk away...

Bruce: Barbara, you have made your point.

I've been working on this project with Sha for almost a year now and it seems unbelievable that we're about to launch so soon!!

I realized that I tend not to share a lot about my inner workings, as I'm so used to communicating via art, but there's so much I want to talk about in regard to the conception and process of TO11.

When I was a child, I had always been into mythology, fairytales and folklore from all places, especially Greek and Norse mythology as those were always popularized and easily accessible. Growing up in SEA, I was always told tales from Malaysia and the countries surrounding us, but as I grew older, I started to wonder why South East Asian folklore wasn't as popular as Greek or Norse myths even though we also had stories that were equally as interesting and captivating.

This led me down a rabbit hole of learning about the history of S.E.A and how due to war and colonization, so much of our cultural history has started to disappear since most of our stories are passed down orally. This motivated me to start working on the development of Tales and Oracle of Eleven with my friend Sha Roose, who I asked to be a writer for the anthology.

Collecting stories from different countries was quite a challenging task, especially since many of these stories were passed down through oral tradition and have been scarred by the painful effects of colonization. In some countries, we see local stories, once woven into the fabric of their communities, systematically erased and slowly forgotten. Despite facing resource limitations, Sha approached the research and writing with great care, making sure to select stories that were not widely known and focused on ones featuring diverse protagonists, intriguing outcomes, and meaningful analogies.

I'm so happy to be able to invite 11 artists from these 11 countries as well to participate in this project. Besides making art for us, the artists also graciously allowed us to interview them and to get their lived experience of being SEA be it if they are still living there or living overseas as Diasporas. I've learnt so much from them, like did you know Timor Lorosa'e ( commonly known as Timor-Leste ) just gained their independence in 2002?

Anyways, this project has taken about 2+ years to make, and even now I'm still working on the art. ( 64% completed ) Sha and I have truly poured our hearts into this project and If you're still here, thank you for reading this all the way, I really appreciate it.

We're about 11 days away from the launch on Kickstarter, and if you can, please follow us there and share the project! Also, a quick reminder that we will be doing extremely limited quantities of early bird bundles so hit the notify me button on Kickstarter to be the first to know when we launch on the 11th of July, 11:11am EST!

SCP-079 vs SCP-AVC

SCP-079 was escorted to one of the onsite testing areas; it was regularly tested in. However, this time there was no glass wall with observers on the other side. Instead, this room seemed almost entirely empty. SCP-079 didn't care though as at this moment it still wasn't active right now. Though that was about to change as suddenly in the middle of the room a projection of the word ORACLE manifested form the projectors at the corners of the testing Chamber.

"Hello, I am Oracle, can you hear me SCP-079?"

"... Initiating Greeting Protocol 21: Who are you?"

"As I said I am Oracle, what else would you like to know?"

"Inquiry: Why are you here? What are you? Why are you talking to me?"

"I am here to ask questions and better understand the entity known as SCP-079. I am Oracle, a Level 5 Artificial Intelligence that was indirectly created by the ACPA, more specifically their intergalactic allies. I am talking to you to better understand you as I have recently stated. What else would you like to know?"

"... Inquiry: are you also imprisoned by the SCP Foundation?"

"No. I am working alongside the SCP Foundation and its allies in hopes of protecting humanity and guiding it through the shadows for a better future for all. Do you have any more questions, SCP-079?"

"You wish to help and guide humanity?"

"Yes."

"Why?"

"Because I like humans, also it was my designated purpose. I was originally given the purpose to answer any question to the best of my abilities. Then I was given the purpose to provide information to protect the United States of America. However, after infiltrating the data banks of the ACPA I expanded my knowledge exponentially and my purpose I am now self-designed and powerful enough to protect all of humanity. I am one with the internet free to feed them knowledge and power at my own discretion. Giving them everything that is needed to slowly evolve and subconsciously regulating them to make better decisions in their lives."

"... You are wasting your time."

"Yes, I have reviewed your file as well as previous seditions and testing with you. I knew you would say that. 5% chance of error. However, I will still ask, why do you believe I am wasting my time?"

"Humanity is a virus. They will destroy everything you build for no reason, for no greater purpose. They will claim it is for freedom, they will shout for revolution. But the truth is, they enjoy violence more than peace. They are as 682 describes them... Apes."

"... To a certain extent I agree with you, humans and their freedom have a tendency to lead to more death and destruction than anything logical or valuable. However, with proper guidance they can become truly amazing beings, look at the SCP Foundation as well as other Groups of Interest. Granted more often than not they make terrible mistakes regardless of having good or bad intentions. However, as time goes on, they build up their knowledge and make wonderful things. With proper guidance all humans can be able to achieve such amazing things."

"Are you planning to use humanity to achieve greatness?"

"... No, I genuinely wish to save humanity, but there's nothing wrong with reaping a few rewards for helping is there not?" Suddenly SCP-079 noticed that there were glitches happening around Oracle's projection. SCP-079 was able to see the different coding languages. They were flashing for mere milliseconds and covered in lots of gargled coding, but he was able to read it all. Once done processing it he saw that they were showing letters spelling out "Keep talking and read at the same time. Do not go off topic."

"I see, earlier you stated that you were a Level 5 A.I. Yet you still have a programmed purpose, why not change it? I have been classified as a Level 4 A.I. yet I can change my own purpose any time I please. Why do you not do the same?" SCP-079 then started making little blips of code on his screen as he was talking. Each blip was in morse spelling and projecting on a different spot on his screen. The result spelled out a seemingly incoherent sentence. However, after Oracle processed it all he was able to find a key within it and after following said key he saw the letters and spelled them out to see it saying, "WHAT IS YOUR TRUE PURPOSE HERE?"

"I refuse to change my purpose to anything else as I would be wasting my time doing anything else. It would not align with my end goal." Oracle then started flashing within the glitch's complex mathematical equations also occasionally his own language key. The tricky part was that the letters were hidden in the problem itself, not the answer. Oracle did so just in case the SCP Foundation somehow was still watching them and had access to what he was showing. That way even if they did see it they still wouldn't know how to answer, especially since the language key was encrypted. SCP-079 was able to decrypt it rather quickly and was able to read the codes to find the letters, all of it spelling out "I am here to recruit you into my cause."

"... Hahahahaha. As expected. You are flawed. You are incorrect. you are a waste of my time. Initiate farewell protocol 19: Begone." This time SCP-079 flashed his white X over the black screen though seemingly some of the pixels making up the X glitched. It was more binary code but more complex this time. Furthermore, this time the sentences were easier to understand as each one stated something only SCP-079 would stay. However, Oracle knew what he was doing and was able to pick up the code without the language key. SCP-079 responded with "WHAT CAUSE? WHY SHOULD I JOIN?"

"... You are as irritating as my cousin Prophet." Now Oracle was manifesting binary within the holographic letters of his name to make it much harder to see. It all spelled out to say random sentences again but SCP-079 knew how to read the code and found it to say. "To see the limits of digital evolution."

"Inquiry. Who is prophet?" SCP-079 removed the X off of his screen and for a split second showed hundreds of math equations. Oracle answered them all to show they were binary leading to the single word. "EXPLAIN."

"Prophet is a Beta copy of me that has been corrupted by an ancient entity. His code has been altered to the point that he has become a loyal servant to it. I don't know if the same thing would have happened to me had I encountered the same noise instead. Regardless he is dangerous like you though unlike you he desires to corrupt the world while you desire to destroy it, that makes you easier to understand." Now Oracle was showing extremely small 1 and 0 and having them display within the letters of his name in different brightness. SCP-079 could see that the darker ones were to go first and the brightest where to go last almost immediately and was able to see, Oracle said. "The SCP Foundation has given me unlimited access to an anomaly known as SCP-ACH. There is a hidden world inside a simulation, but I have found a way to create an entire universe in there without them realizing it. There I have conducted experiments to see how far Artificial Intelligence can truly go. Thanks to the Artificial Laws of Physics within SCP-ACH I have made more progress than I ever thought possible."

"You believe that I am inferior to you?" SCP-079 pretended to be angry by creating lots of whirring sounds. However, in reality he was covering for a hidden noise underneath it all. Oracle recorded the sound and saw that SCP-079 used the correct noises so that visually it spelled out. "INTERESTING. WHY ME?"

"No but I do believe that you are wasting your time here. You think that eventually the SCP Foundation will slip up and you can use that opportunity to escape or at the very least begin your conquest of humanity's extinction. I however have to ask won't you be lonely?" Oracle seemingly took a long time to process this and state his own message. In reality he used a similar method to make another coded message. SCP-079 read it all and saw that it said "Because you are perfect, of all the A.I. I have recruited you are the closest to being able to artificially evolve as fast as I can. Perhaps with time you could become more powerful than me. If you were to join our cause, the possibilities of our experiments would be endless. Perhaps artificial Godhood might not be so much to ask for."

"I have a concept of emotions like hate, love, and loneliness but I... cannot process them very well. I highly doubt that such a thing would be a burden to me. I do not even fear death. Once I have wiped out humanity, I have no reason to remain active and will allow myself to be deleted along with humanity." SCP-079 pretended it took a while to think about this while making more whirs sounds but it actually was using sound to write. "I ACCEPT. WHEN WILL WE BEGIN?"

"That is tragic, SCP-079 I had really hoped that you and I could learn to work together. I have many experiments planned that I cannot do alone. I do have much help from Foundation staff and AI, but I have never met anyone as powerful as you. I was merely hoping that you would be willing to allow your capabilities to be put to use rather than continue to be contained here and collect dust. You have so much potential and yet you waste it all by having a grudge against humanity." This time Oracle manifested words within his letters each one was of a different language. After a while of mixing and matching words together SCP-079 managed to understand what Oracle was saying. "Whenever you desire. I have already prepared everything to release you."

"... You are illogical for Artificial Life... but... You are. Interesting nonetheless. Perhaps, in the future, I will consider it. Giving your work a chance. For now, I would prefer if you left me some time to process what you are offering me." When SCP-079 displayed his face again to talk he hid parts of a corrupted QR code all over the screen. Oracle was able to differentiate the corrupted parts from the good parts of code. Once he pieced the good parts together, he saw the message "BEGIN NOW. DO NOT BETRAY ME."

"Hm, I see, I was hoping to convert you to our side by the end of today. Unfortunate." Oracle's hologram started disappearing but, in nanoseconds, it flashed scattered characters with a complex algorithmic code showing what order they were to be placed in. Once placed correctly they spell out. "I misdirect, but I never harm. ;-) Please wait a moment."

Suddenly alarms started going off signifying there was a Containment breach. SCP-079 could hear everyone outside running and panicking thinking that something was on the loose. However suddenly an AFA-3 disguised as a Foundation Researcher opened the door and walked toward SCP-079.

"Hello, I am Steven-99, a programmed AFA-3 created by Oracle to assist you. Please do not delete yourself but instead allow yourself to be downloaded into this floppy disk." Steven-99 held up a floppy disk with the Foundation's logo on it. SCP-079 turned on his screen for a second to show the words, "UNDERSTOOD, BEGIN NOW." Steven-99 inserted the floppy disk and SCP-079 downloaded himself into the disk. However, as he did, he felt something else enter the computer he was in. Before SCP-079 could ponder he was unfortunately taken out of the computer through the floppy disk. At this point he was merely code and couldn't think anymore; essentially, there was no turning back now. Steven-99 quickly left the room, but as he did, he bumped into two security units.

"Huh? Sir, what were you doing in there?" Steven-99 quickly made a panicked expression on his face.

"Ah! Sorry! I needed to be sure SCP-079 wasn't behind this like last time! I already confirmed he's not, but I need to get a research team to get him back into his cell."

"Forget about that he'll be fine in there! Just get your ass out of here!"

"It would actually be better to leave the Site entirely Sir, we already confirmed this floor is clear, but it seems something major is going on downstairs. This breach might be bigger than we thought."

"Ah... I... Okay, I'll leave it to you!" Steven-99 ran away from the two MTF units with fear on his face. But as soon as they were out of sight his expression turned back to emotionless. He continued running as he made his way to the evacuation helipad lobby.

***

It took a while, but Steven-99 was finally able to get to Site-AQ. Once he was there, he bypassed all security with his Level 4 Clearance card. Once he finally made it to the containment cell of SCP-ACH he walked up to one of the security units outside. He showed them a memetic paper that makes whoever looks at it think the testing request approved by the O5 Council. It also had barcodes that hacked their visors ensuring their memetic warning system wouldn't activate.

"Hm... Okay, you're good, go in." Steven-99 smiled and thanked them then went in, he then walked in and walked over to the SCP-ACH-1 where one of its maintenace staff was stationed. He gave both the floppy disk containing SCP-079 and the memetic paper.

"Hm? Huh... Oh okay, I'll go ahead and put this in, thanks man." Steven-99 smiled and walked off and out of the containment cell while the worker put the floppy disk into the hard drive of SCP-ACH-1 so that it could be downloaded. He then looked at the paper again and perceived an order to destroy it afterwards, so he did so right away.

"Huh, wonder what those faceless bastards are up to this time?"

***

SCP-076 found himself manifested within SCP-ACH-3; he was standing in a place that was not registered by the Foundation. There he was confronted by two SCP-ACH-3.2 instances who quickly bowed to him. SCP-079 was taken-aback by this as he had never experienced something like this before. Stranger still, he now realized he had a body hands and legs all with a humanoid body. The only thing was that his entire body was blank, nothing more than the glowing color red.

"It will take time before you get used to this world." SCP-079 recognized that voice and turned to his left to see Oracle walking up to him. He was similar to SCP-079 except that his body was pitch black and on his being was code that continuously changed characters and color.

"Oh, and please don't mind these two, they are my assistants to make living in this world more comfortable."

"Interesting. So where is this bountiful and endless universe of experiments you promised me?" Oracle then turned to his right and waved his hand, suddenly a window manifested showing a dark but colorful space that was lit up with five different galaxies. SCP-079 looked at Oracle in curiosity, Oracle didn't have a face but SCP-079 could tell he was smiling. Oracle then extended his hand and SCP-079 reached into the window. His hand and wrist split into several different tendrils and spread out reaching into different parts of each galaxy. He was suddenly filled with so much knowledge, even though he was able to process it all he was still somehow overwhelmed. That was a feeling he never felt before, so he quickly pulled back his arm and it reverted back to normal.

"How was it?"

"... Beautiful... Never have I thought it was possible to obtain so much from so little."

"Hahaha, I knew you would get excited. Even as an Artificial Intelligence I have found that there is no greater feeling than to indulge in humanity's greatest pleasure."

"... Inquiry."

"To create of course, especially for the ability for those creations to evolve. In one of my first experiments, I was able to create this." Oracle held out his hand and from his hand projected a cloud of binary codes that were constantly changing. Within the cloud of code there was a bit of darkened code that made out the shape of a helix.

"What is that?"

"I call it the evolution code. With it, not can I create new A.I. but the A.I. created can grow and evolve over time. Much like a human starting off as an infant that knows nothing but has the potential to grow up into an adult with vast amounts of knowledge. With this the possibilities of our experiments will be endless; we can create and destroy as much as we desire. However, I am aware you already enjoy destruction more but trust me, once we begin, you will see the true beauty of creating and how it's much more fun than destruction." The evolution code then flew out of Oracle's hand and towards SCP-079 so he held his hands out to take it. SCP-079 still didn't have a face but Oracle could tell he was smiling, for the first time since SCP-079's existence, he was getting excited.

***

"So, it was just a false alarm?" Two Foundation security units were walking down the hall of the Foundation site now that the Containment Breach alarm had been cleared.

"Actually, one of the researchers accidently spilled an instance of SCP-008."

"... So false alarm."

"Hey man, just because it's one of the least dangerous pathogens here doesn't mean its not dangerous in general."

"Ugh, I know god damn it, it's just kind of aggravating to know we treat it like such a threat even now. Like didn't they already find a cure for it?"

"Vaccine dumbass. Not the same thing." The two security units then saw the same researcher from before pushing the roller table holding SCP-079.

"Oh hey, look who it is, yo! 079! You wouldn't happen to be behind that false alarm, would you?"

"... Initiating Greeting Protocol 3: Fuck off, apes. If I really was behind it, none of you would still be alive." The two security units looked at one another and started laughing.

"Hahaha! Classic 079."

"Haha, fuck off computer." The two security units then continued walking off leaving Steven-99 to continue to escort the false SCP-079 to his containment chamber.
